Divorce is a very traumatic event for most people. It touches on their finances, their relationship with their children, their retirement accounts, their future security.I come from a very family-centered environment. I grew where the family was the core of all of our social interaction and I think it’s very important to be there for people to provide them hope that they can in the future maintain that relationship with their children.

I got into divorce and child custody because I saw how substantial an impact these types of family law cases make on people’s lives.

[Client Testimonial] My wife had requested a divorce and it was unexpected. I felt hopeless and lost. I was hurt. I was angry, so I sought counsel. I learned of Kevin and Mary through a colleague, and the whole time when I was feeling hopeless and helpless and lost, they were like a beacon of light. They would take care of my mental and emotional needs, not just the legal stuff, but caring about me as a person.

[Client Testimonial] My children are everything to me. Everything I do is revolved around them, so I went with Colwell Law Group because they’re really friendly, they’re very welcoming, very down to earth and just straightforward.
